《Birth of the Blues》歌词

[00:00:00] Birth of the Blues - Louis Prima (路易斯·普利马)

[00:00:06] They say some people long ago

[00:00:11] Were searching for a diffrent tune

[00:00:16] So they started swaying to and fro

[00:00:26] They didn't know just what to use

[00:00:30] That is how the blues really began

[00:00:35] They heard the breeze in the trees

[00:00:40] Singing weird melodies

[00:00:45] And they made that the start of the blues

[00:00:53] And from a jail came the wail

[00:00:58] Of a down-hearted frail

[00:01:03] And they played that

[00:01:07] As part of the blues

[00:01:11] From a whippoorwill

[00:01:14] Out on a hill

[00:01:18] They took a new note

[00:01:21] Pushed it through a horn

[00:01:24] Til it was worn

[00:01:27] Into a blue note

[00:01:31] And then they nursed it, rehearsed it

[00:01:37] And gave out the news

[00:01:42] That the southland gave birth to the blues

[00:01:50] And from a jail came the wail

[00:01:52] Of a down-hearted frail

[00:01:54] Out on a hill they took a new note

[00:01:56] Pushed it through a horn

[00:01:58] Til it was worn into a blue note

[00:02:02] And then they nursed it rehearsed it

[00:02:09] And gave out the news

[00:02:13] That the southland gave birth to the blues

[00:02:22] And they played that as part of the blues

[00:02:23] From a whippoorwill

[00:02:24] Out on a hill they took a new note

[00:02:26] Pushed it through a horn

[00:02:27] Til it was worn into a blue note

[00:02:31] And then they nursed it, rehearsed it

[00:02:33] And gave out the news

[00:02:35] That the southland gave birth to the blues
